Edo Period, Old Seto, Twin-handled Tenmoku Glaze Mizusashi (Water Jar) with Original Box. Black Korean, Yi Dynasty, Old Karatsu, Tea Ceremony Utensils, Antiques.

This is a double-handled mizusashi (water container) from the Edo period, made in the Ko-Seto style.
The flowing black glaze is magnificent and exhibits iridescence due to its age.

The lid is made of true lacquered black urushi.

There is a small repair on the rim, but it has been skillfully done and is not noticeable.

This item is watertight and can be used today as a mizusashi for tea ceremony.

It comes with its original wooden box and is a well-made piece.

Height: Approximately 15.7 cm
Diameter: Approximately 16.2 cm

I am also decluttering and selling other antiques from my home.
